Chakwera urges opposition to maximise voter turnout: ‘Malawi needs change’

Malawi Congress Party (MCP) presidential hopeful Lazarus Chakwera has urged people to turn out in large numbers to vote in the fresh presidential elections and elect him as next Head of State with Vice-President Saulos Chilima, who is his running mate to Tonse Alliance.

Chakwera: Malawi is broken under DPP, Sibwino nyani tizimulekela munda 

Chakwera said this when he conducted whistle-stop rallies in Lilongwe under the electoral grouping of nine political parties, among them, MCP, UTM Party, People’s Party (PP), Umodzi Party (UP) and People’s Transformation Party (Petra).

“We want massive voting during these fresh elections,” said Chakwera.

“God has given Malawians a golden opportunity to start a new era of tranquillity, normality, conviviality, with respect to the rule of law,” said Chakwera.

He said the Tonse Alliance will recuperate Malawi from the many damages inflicted by the current Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).

Sibwino nyani tizimulekela munda [We should move on from this disastrous chapter and focus on the things that matter to our people]”

He added: “We have agreed with Chilima to provide servant leadership.”

Chakwera said Tonse Alliance is  fighting a new form of oppression -– a corrupt system that keeps people imprisoned in poverty.

“We all have a chance on the voting day to do what is right, what is just and that is to vote for change and got to get our country growing,” he said.

He noted the life is incredibly hard for poor Malawians.

“We have a date with destiny.  if we fail to use this opportunity, history will judge us harshl,” said Chakwera.

He said the opposition have agreed with change of voting day to June 23, saying Malawians  have an appointment with history on the polling day.

“I’m only asking you to give change a chance. I’m asking you to lend us your vote for the next five years. That’s it. Five years at a time. When we reach the end of this period, judge us.”

Chakwera also said  his government will reduce fertiliser prices to K4 495 per 50 kilogramme bag from the current price of K22 000.

  5. We are not having any problem even if you can not put pictures! We love our Chakwera and the Team.

  6. Dr. Lazarus Chakwera, The humble servant of God speaking with all his candour and true passion for the needs of the poor masses in Malawi.
    God Almighty will never fail you Dr. Chakwera, as He has chosen you from the humble beginnings, to lead His children out of Egypt into the promised land of Canaan.

    I pray that God continues to protect you, and guiding you through all your endeavours, so much so that God’s purpose of delivering His children from the harsh and atrocious calamities they have been enduring for decades gets fulfilled.

    We trust and believe in the living God, the God of Abraham, the one you have been serving for many years as a preacher of His living word.
    It is undoubtedly the same Almighty God who shall work with you on a higher level and standard, as the President of the Republic, to redeem all Malawians from abject poverty and oppression, to the new Malawi of law and order, prosperity and true unity.

    Dr. Chakwera, God chose you since time immemorial (way before you were born).
    This is the time to accomplish all that God has planned for you. Stay strong and fear not, as the Lord is with you.

    No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and as it is written in Psalms 75 verse 10, God says that He shall chop the horns of the wicked ones, and let the horns of the righteous grow.

    I pray that God lets your horns grow, and manifests Himself in you , and that He blesses our nation.

    In the mighty name of Jesus Christ l pray,

    Amen !

    1. Amen! Thank you fro your Prayer,may God respect his word,so that your joy should increase in Jesus name!

    2. That’s true. We need a change to save Malawi from burning. This is our only country and we have no where to run to. We can make a better future for ourselves and the generation to come only when we make a change now.we don’twant. to be blamed by our in children and grand children in future as to why we didn’t transform our Nation. Let’s vote for Chakwera and Chilima team now.

    JB was minister and VP b4 becoming president
    APM served as minister b4 becoming president

    Being reverand isn’t enough, especially now that you have surrounded yourself with cashgate and failed politicians.

    1. You see, that’s the problem of taking the Country as a mare Bus, I mean how could you call our beautiful Country as a Bus? Let those who can take Malawi as country where people are, not as a Bus. For God’s sake how could you? This is our home not a Bus men! It should be a Bus because this is the end of rule, oh yes! Give us our Country!!

    2. Spot on! Actually Kamuzu was Minister of local government before becoming Prime Minister. Awa ndi osatsusika a pa pulpit. Kutsusidwa amaona Ngati mwawapaka phulutsa!
